After the early touchdowns, Seattle controlled the game’s pace with Chris Carson, who ran for 104 yards on 22 carries. Maybe more importantly, Carson didn’t have a turnover after los- ing a fumble in each of the fi rst three games. Wilson threw for 240 yards and a touchdown. The Seahawks also leaned on their defense, which forced the Car- dinals’ rookie quarterback into another up-and-down day. COLLEGE FOOTBALL Washington doubles up USC, 28-14 open space.

That’s a 14-point swing,” Washington coach Chris Petersen said. Washington’s talented secondary forced Matt Fink into three interceptions, shut down the pass game for most of the afternoon and caused headaches for the former third-stringer thrust into his fi rst college start. Meanwhile, the Huskies received a career day from Ahmed, who rushed for 153 yards, including his 89-yard TD run in the third quar- ter and gave Washington a 21-point lead. AP Sports Writer CORVALLIS — There was no reason for any doubt when Jet Toner stepped up to kick the game-winning fi eld goal for Stanford Saturday night. “He’s got that cool Hawaiian breeze going through his veins,” Car- dinal coach Davis Shaw said about the senior from Honolulu. Toner’s 39-yard fi eld goal came with just a second left on the clock, and Stanford overcame Oregon State’s late rally for a 31-28 victory that snapped a three-game losing streak. The Beavers tied the game at 28 on Artavis Pierce’s 1-yard touchdown run with 1:55 left in the game. But Connor Wed- ington returned the kickoff 43 yards and Davis Mills passed for a fi rst down and ran for another on a fi nal drive that ended with Toner’s fi eld goal. Mills, starting in place of injured quarterback K.J. Costello, threw for 245 yards and three touch- downs for the Cardinal (2-3, 1-2 Pac-12), who extended their winning streak over the Beavers to 10 games. The game, which was delayed for 15 minutes because of lightning in the area, was the Pac-12 opener for the Beavers (1-3, 0-1). Jake Luton threw for 337 yards and a touchdown for the Beavers. Isaiah Hodgins had 10 catches for 162 yards and a TD. Hodgins went into the game ranked eighth nationally with an average of 115.7 receiving yards a game. The Cardinal led 28-14 in the fourth quarter, but B.J. Baylor’s 1-yard touch- down run closed the gap with 7:01 left and gave the Beavers momentum. HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL Prairie City/Burnt River roll over Locomotives for first win By Angel Carpenter The Blue Mountain Eagle PRAIRIE CITY — The Prairie City/Burnt River Panthers claimed their fi rst victory of the season at home Friday, defeating the Hun- tington/Harper Locomotives 55-24. “We were up against a team that we outmanned,” said Panther coach Scott Dean. “I think that af- fected us — we knew that fi rst half would happen.” Prairie City led by 41 points at halftime. The Panther team was fi red up from the start, scoring on their fi rst drive with quarterback Jayden Winegar, a junior, rushing the ball 20 yards in the play. Winegar connected with Opie McDaniels to score on the Pan- thers’ next possession. The Panther defense then halted the Locomotives’ progress, forcing a turnover on downs. Winegar connected with fresh- man Doyal Lawrence for a touch- down pass, and Lawrence was there for the conversion as well. Prairie City was up 19-0 going into the second quarter. Panther Declan Zweygardt, a junior, made it 25-0 when on fourth down he battled through the middle from the 4-yard line. Although an illegal blindside block was called on the Panthers on their next possession, they moved through the setback. After some rushing gains, Winegar con- nected with Lawrence on a 25-yard pass. Zweygardt made it 33-0, taking another handoff from Winegar and weaving through the blocks. The Locomotives scored their fi rst touchdown of the game with 1 minute left in the half, leaving the Panthers leading 49-8. Other Panther football players rotated in for their chance on the fi eld through the remainder of the contest. “We just wanted to play every- body, get everybody in the ball game, and made sure that every- body would be OK at the end of the game,” Dean said. He said they accomplished a lot in Friday’s game. Next up the Panthers travel to McKenzie next week, when they face the Eagles at 7 p.m. Friday in Finn Rock. “We’re starting to see some prog- ress in our program, and not just passing — running and defense,” Dean said. “It’s all coming together. It’s just going to be slow.” Lew Brothers FALL TIRE TREASURE VALLEY STEEL, INC.
